So you are not using Kolab Server/OpenPKG?

It is okay in general to have uid != primary email address,
so this is not a general solution for a Kolab Server.

We might want to check these setting for Kolab Server 2.2 as
the OpenPKG version comes with postfix 2.4.3.

Depends on which Kolab Server version you have gotten. :)
I guess Kolab Server/OpenPKG 2.2beta1 will have this problem.
Therefore I have just created a new issue:
kolab/issue1893 (distributionslists expanded including its own email address)
